CORRECTION APPENDED

Cambridge police are looking for three unidentified men accused of stabbing a 38-year-old Somerville man multiple times on JFK Street outside of CVS early Saturday morning, according to a Cambridge police report.

The victim, whose name is redacted from the report, told police that three black males, all between 19 and 21 years of age, attacked him. The report called the case an “attempted murder.”

The victim took a cab to Cambridge City Hospital, then proceeded to walk into the hospital at 12:39 a.m. Saturday morning, according to the report.

Police were dispatched to the hospital. When they arrived, they spoke with the attending physician who informed them the victim had seven different wounds—in the abdomen, chest, leg, and pelvis—that had been inflicted by an edged weapon, according to the report.

The victim lost a “great deal” of blood. Much of the blood-saturated clothing the victim wore to the hospital was taken for evidence, according to the report. The victim received a CAT scan at the hospital.

The victim was later transported to Massachusetts General Hospital.

Hospital officials released the victim yesterday, according to the Cambridge police.

A CVS employee, who would not give his name to The Crimson, said yesterday in an interview outside of CVS that he had been working the night of the stabbing.

“I heard it and I came outside,” he said. “I heard some yelling, sounded like a fight.”

CVS—located at 29 JFK St.—was closed at the time. He said that while he did not see the alleged fight, a homeless man was outside at the time and witnessed the incident.

Police also interviewed the bartender working at Whitney’s Cafe, a bar near where the alleged incident took place, according to Scott Baron, another Whitney’s Cafe bartender.

Baron said the bartender told the police that he did not know what happened.

As the investigation is still ongoing, police are not releasing information on the case outside of the police report, according to Alexa Manocchio, a Cambridge police public information officer.

CORRECTION

An earlier version of the Oct. 22 News article "Police Seek Suspects In Saturday Stabbing" in one instance referred to the crime reported Saturday night as a shooting. It was, in fact, a stabbing.
